Our Vision

Raiko Systems, Inc. was launched with a vision of creating opportunities for small businesses and non-profit organizations through high quality technology products and services, management expertise, and training - regardless of financial means.  The founders T. J. Saotome and Kathleen A. Ryan are focused on creating lasting, positive social impact through their involvement in their communities.

T. J. Saotome was previously the Director of Information Technology at Girl Scout Council of Southeastern Massachusetts where his charter was creating technology solutions that could be leveraged across this national non-profit organization.  Co-Founder Kathleen Ryan, is a former technology management consultant for PriceWaterhouseCoopers, helping clients in RI and New England states with database driven applications development and management.

Since the inception and launch of Raiko Systems, in January of 2003, the organization's mission is to apply this same vision to other small businesses and non-profit groups that wish to leverage strong technological aptitude and sound business management to achieve their overall goals.  Our core team, along with an extended professional network, aims to create a collaborative community that leverages existing innovations and ideas (sometimes referred to as open source or shareware) to make dramatic improvements to non-profit organizations.  In this process, we are continually improving the quality and sophistication of the solutions that Raiko Systems is able to offer our clients.  The "harvest" of our collective efforts can then be shared with those who share our vision.

We are here to facilitate the sharing of technology and business management that will allow your firm to achieve your strategic and tactical goals; not to reinvent the products, services, and practices already available elsewhere.
